In Windows one sets a value in Registry when one wants to define a proxy. When using the WinHttpRequest object, one can specify an application-level proxy.

What is actually happening at the HTTP request/response level?

  • The other question doesn't answer what I'm asking. I want to construct a header which uses a proxy server. I want to know how it is different from a standard header. – bugmagnet Nov 28 '13 at 05:50
  • It's part of a larger problem: I can specify application-level proxies when using XMLHttpRequest, but I'd like to be able to do application-level proxies when using InternetExplorer.Application. There's a header specification as the fourth element of the Navigate method. I'm wondering if I can use that to form the correct header for a proxied navigation. – bugmagnet Nov 28 '13 at 05:52
  • The OP of the other article wants to know if he can tell whether the traffic he has received comes from a proxy. I'm a bit further upstream. – bugmagnet Nov 28 '13 at 06:00
  • Why don't you update your question with your actual question then? :-) It's a bit unclear what you're asking or what problem you're actually trying to solve. You can't however just set a header to make a regular request become a proxy request. – CodeCaster Nov 28 '13 at 07:00
